"[b]Well look at that, seems I am a woman after all.[/b]" She rolled her eyes, though she hated to admit that the woman was right. Shion then shot Levi a look, pointing at her. "[b]This doesn't leave the...[/b]" She started, but stopped. They weren't in a room, and she wasn't going to say 'this doesn't leave the beach'. She let out a slight huff, clearly embarrassed. "[b]This stays between you and me. [i]I mean it.[/i]" She muttered, clearing her throat. "[b]Meli is the miracle here. I was almost positive she was like her sister.[/b]" She shrugged lightly, crossing her arms.

"[b]Look at that, she [i]can[/i] be nice.[/b]" Nadeline told Emiri quietly, and the brunette had to bite her tongue not to laugh. Still, as they were led to the VIP section, Emiri found herself left aghast at the sheer quality and quantity of the clothes around them. They looked quite pricey as well, could they even afford this? That thought struck her mind as she remembered exactly who she was with. Still, where to even start? "[b]Having friends in high places has its benefits, I see~[/b]" The princess called out as she began wandering around, scrutinizing each piece of clothing carefully. She was impressed.

Emiri looked at the two blondes and decided to go in a different direction, if only to have some freedom before the two would drag her off to the fitting room. She could already feel Nadeline's eyes on her.

Grant couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, though he remained entirely silent. Nope, it was not a good secret at all. He wondered if Nadeline suspected anything, she had a tendency to know about these kinds of things. He looked at Wesley briefly, not entirely convinced by his rather short response. He turned his attention back to Jaakuna, wondering what the appropriate thing to say was. Perhaps it was a better idea just to keep it between them, but he couldn't think too much on what to do about it. Now that Zodiark was lurking in Jaakuna's mind, was he able to seize control when he pleased? Instantly he thought of Aloa. She would know how to expel his influence. Taking in a breath, he let it out slowly.

"[b]Well, Jaakuna, that was certainly a doozy.[/b]" He admitted. The thought then occurred to him that Emiri herself may have been unaware of her own problem. "[b]My question is, what do you wish to do about it?[/b]"
